AM TESTIMONY: CONTEMPLATIVE SPIRITUALITY/MYSTICISM

One who is taught the word must share all good things with the one who teaches. (Galatians 6:6) In the interest of showing that thiings are not all bad, may the Lord be praised as a reader of Apprising Ministries shares the following encouraging testimony of God’s faithfulness: Thank you for your website. I have […]

CONTEMPLATIVE/CENTERING PRAYER TODAY AT CATALYST CONFERENCE

In articles e.g. like On Contemplative Spirituality and Charismania here at Apprising Ministries I’ve been warning you about the very clear and present danger posed by the ongoing evangelical fascination with corrupt Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM) and its parallel arm of charismatic excesses. Like I’ve said before, it’s important for you to remember here that CSM, which has been perpetrated throughout evangelicalism as […]

MARK DRISCOLL CONTROVERSY COVER-UP?

Since the first Elephant Room (ER) conference, I’ve been talking to you here at Apprising Ministries about a developing Evangelical Ecumenical Magisterium (EEM) growing up around Mark Driscoll and his ER co-host James MacDonald. This EEM of cult of celebrity megachurch pastors appears quite important to them. It would seem that rather than abandon it, they even resigned from The Gospel Coalition when […]

SBC’S THOM RAINER LISTS THE 20 MOST INFLUENTIAL EVANGELICALS

Now when the Pharisees gathered to [Jesus], with some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem, they saw that some of his disciples ate with hands that were defiled, that is, unwashed. (For the Pharisees and all the Jews do not eat unless they wash their hands properly, holding to the tradition of the elders, and when they come […]

KEN HAM OF ANSWERS IN GENESIS DEBATE WITH BILL NYE

It’s really no secret here at Apprising Ministries that I’m a firm believer in the infallibility and inerrancy of God’s Word as contained in the Bible. As I read Holy Scripture I see it to teach what is generally known as the young earth model of creation and no scientific evidence to the contrary. With […]

WILLOW CREEK BEGINS THE SINFULLY ECUMENICAL ALPHA COURSE

In J.I. Packer And Tim Keller Endorsing The Alpha Course here at Apprising Ministries, as far back as two years ago, I attempted to show you that the hyper-charismatic The Alpha Course (TAC)—marred by Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM)—is making another comeback within the mainstream of the visible church. Another example might be found in John Piper Approves Of The Alpha Course? There I […]

MARK DRISCOLL DEFENDS HIS CHRISTIAN BROTHER JOEL OSTEEN

This online apologetics and discernment ministry (OADM) Apprising Ministries has been blessed of Jesus to be used by many as one of His “go-to” ministries in the critical area of the ne0-gnostic corruption inherent within Contemplative Spirituality/Mysticism (CSM). You need to understand that CSM is a refried Roman Catholic mysticism hostile to sola Scriputra, which was supposedly “discovered” by Living Spiritual Teacher and Quaker mystic Richard Foster, Unfortunately, it’s […]

IN A SENSE, NO HELL IN THE ALPHA COURSE

God is a God of justice and judgment. If you read through Alpha you will not see the word ‘hell.’ In a sense, there is no hell in Alpha’s teaching. I know that people do not want to hear about hell. John Blanchard wrote a book, Whatever happened to Hell? and he said that he did […]

SOVEREIGN GRACE MINISTRIES IS OK WITH THE ALPHA COURSE?

In Lawsuit Targets Sovereign Grace Ministries And Co-Founder Over New Child Sex Abuse Allegations here at Apprising Ministries I brought you up to speed concerning that amended lawsuit. Things are a bit difficult for SGM right now. ((http://bit.ly/UpYFzr, accessed 1-15-13.)) As I mentioned before, last December we began to see some real fallout from the suit in Flagship […]
